# Point-to-point contribution / return feeds (WF-04), draft

Data version 6d29e2f86993, built 2026-10-26; facts on this page checked 2026-10-21 to 2026-10-22.

**Draft: corrections pending. Teradek is correcting the slots, fit and segments of this workflow; read it as a draft.**

- Id: `wf.WF-04`. Segments: broadcast.
- Chain: Prism Flex encoder ↔ Prism Flex/Rack decoder over SRT, TRT or RIST.
- [Build a kit for this workflow](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-04/kit.md): pick a product per slot and see the lines priced per currency.
- Ready kits by feeds (slots 2, 4 scale): [1 feed](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-04/kit.md?preset=feeds&n=1) · [2 feeds](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-04/kit.md?preset=feeds&n=2) · [3 feeds](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-04/kit.md?preset=feeds&n=3) · [4 feeds](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-04/kit.md?preset=feeds&n=4). Each slot's pick follows the workflow sheet: its strongest-fit current candidate, then the sheet's order. It is not a Teradek recommendation; the other candidates are listed with their prices.

## Jobs it serves

As customers describe them, from Teradek's question catalogue:

- Q04 "Two venues exchange programme and return feed over the public internet every night." (broadcast).
- Q21 "A hospital streams surgery to a lecture hall securely." (education); or [Single-camera event stream (draft: corrections pending)](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-06.md). WF-04 is recorded for broadcast; this education scenario is mapped to it by Teradek's question catalogue.
- Q26 "A house of worship with two campuses wants the sermon live at the second site." (worship). WF-04 is recorded for broadcast; this worship scenario is mapped to it by Teradek's question catalogue.
